I drove a truck for years.. my only accident (that was my fault) was taking the mirror off of a ford taurus in Elizabeth NJ trying to get out of a parking lot. I stopped right there, found the owner and he worked it all out with my boss over my cell phone..
The other two accidents were people hitting me

Oh thats right. Tickets are about punishing unsafe actions, not generating revenue.
If it's anything like here the truck could have been repaired, returned to service and retired before the police came. The last accident I went to we called for police and they came two hours later.
You have a white PVC fence?
Ahh, I was picturing plumbing PVC pipes. I didn't realize that stuff was PVC. Where's the facepalm icon?
UPS is really weird about their trucks getting in accidents. As far as I know, any truck that is damaged is removed as quickly as they can get someone out to tow it and crushed if it cant be easily repaired. I think behavior like the fence incident by big companies is disgusting, but it is all part of the modern "loss prevention" mentality.
